I changed the strings on my Jackson Dinky JS11. Normally I use light gauge, but this time I went with medium. After tuning it and noticing the difference in thickness, the bridge is on a sharp angle, and the whammy bar couldn’t even swivel past the volume knob.

I tried loosening the two bridge screws which helped a bit and raised it to be less sharp of an angle, but it also raised the action considerably. At least the whammy bar can swivel freely. But the amount I can “wham” seems less than before, too. (Pictures are after this adjustment)

Is there a way to get the back end of the bridge downward so it is more “even”? That would reduce some of the action and give me more whammy room?
